I'm considering doing a little project to the CR. However, it would be a big help, if I could get some photoshop assistance first before throwing money at the bike.

The project:
I've got a MY10 white CR and am thinking about changing the white side pods out for black. It would look like Rkc00 bike seen in the below first picture. However, rather than the new Buell plaque sticker, I'd like to keep a similar decal to the MY10. I say similar, because, I’d like to make a custom decal inverting the colors, making the decal white.

Summary:
Photoshop project a white MY10 CR, with black pods, with white decals.

Rkc00 bike:

BIG THANKS FOR THE HELP!!!

I don't have any photoshop skills but have you thought about putting the black CR decal on the black pod?

Blur, I don't want the gray. I think it would look better with white, since it will match the rest of the bikes color scheme. Thanks for the thought!

I think you need the tailsection to be white

White tailsection is not for me. No offense to others who like it, but I think it makes the tail look even fatter. My goal is to make the tail look as slim as possible. In fact, another future project, is to put the XBR trunk pan on and slim it down even more.

Keef,
I'm not talking about the Surlyn colored tail, I know other than decals, they're the same. I'm talking about the trunk pan, which is different XBR to 1125.

Nice.

I'd go white on the "1125" part of the "1125CR" decal on the tail, to pull the white pod CR out even more.

And a black front fender.

Jeff,
That's just what I was looking for. I'm now sure about going for the custom stickers. Thanks!!! No rush, but if you have a second, I think Ratbuell is right with the black front fender and the white 1125CR decal on the tail.

Thanks again,
Jay

Ratbuell,
Good call!
